DDR Injuries

I haven't done anything serious at all.

I have an RO metal pad at home, and I don't like playing with shoes on because the arrows crack easily and I'm constantly replacing them when I use my shoes. I play in socks and still manage to cut my feet open a lot. I have calluses on the balls of my feet.

One day, I played like, 7 straight games (35 songs). on my second song, Which happened to be Max 300 standard, I was moving quite fast, and fell straight on my kneecap. Omg it hurt like getting kicked in the balls (sry ladies who may not realize how much that hurts)!!! I was in soo much pain that I couldnt barely talk. I saw an arcade attendant run over and like, sling me over his shoulder. (Im only 13 so im still pretty light) and set me on my back on a table near the machine. He was really cool to me. he was actually nice enough to refund 3 of my games. (the only ones he knew i played) and made sure I was able to get up and find my parents who were shopping in the mall! I still have a twinge in that knee whenever I play...

Nothing too serious... I used to get a lot of blisters from playing constantly.... I have a scar on my left leg from the corner of the DDR machine

1. I was freestyle shadowing someone and i stepped to far to the right of the pad and i almost broke my ankle by falling off(i stepped on the edge of the pad).

2. my friend got a nosebleed from playing max 300 5 times in a row trying to sdg it again. i was gonna give him a free game if he did it.

Playing a Oni song and catching double muscule cramps in the thighs simutaneously mid way through a song and forcing to fail it because the pain is unbearable.....

The really big reason what pissed me off is I was FCing the song....
